I do remember it being kind of a crapshoot getting both cores folding on a 295......If only one core is running , 550 will be fine.

Yeah that was usually beacuse there were already a lot of 295's in the farm. A Single should be fine, I know myself and two other peeps had issues once the 4th card was slotted in. That, and I know people had issues if they were the single PCB ones.

For a single card though, I think he will be fine.

I would rather believe and find god doesn't exist than to not believe and find that he does.

Yeah, getting all 8 Clients running was fun, I remember those days. With some patience, I managed to get the Clients running on quad 9800GX2s and then quad 295s. But using the V7 Client, things may be easier to set up now.
Talk about space heaters. Ran both setup using dual PSUs (TX750s, if memory serves me right).
